Complete tubular frame and very strong drivetrain. I kind of preferred the old 235 CI 6 that was in it
450 Electric horsepower is rather awesome as it has a power band much broader than an IC engine. Pulls like a Diesel at low RPM and just keeps on hauling.

I think I would have kept the 235 6 cyl and been able to haul something! Those old Chevys were classy in their day. I remember riding in a borrowed 1964 model with my older brother when we moved from Dodge City, KS to Enid, OK back in 1964. Dad drove the U-Haul, and Mom the car.
